General of the United Nations Prime
Ministers
presidents dignitaries ladies and
gentlemen
when Africa prospers Europe prospers and
the world will prosper too we can move
forward
together that is the
message behind my few words today the
sentiment behind the mate plan and the
vision of the European
Union and enrio mate
understood sooner and perhaps B better
than most that there is more strength in
Nations working together than there is
when working against each
other the relationship between our great
continents must be characterized by a
real Partnership of
equals one where we acknowledge the past
and look to the future together that is
how
we all Prosper how all our peoples are
able to thrive and to fulfill their
potential
Tempo allow me also to pay tribute to
the work of the African Union under the
leadership of mfak and president aali
asumani as mfak often says we Europeans
and Africans have a comparative
advantage but if we don't cultivate it
it will disappear to the benefit of
other
players business trade and investment
can only Prosper creating jobs and
sustainable inclusive growth in a
climate of Peace security stability
respect for human rights and good
governance dear friends the world is
changing and we must change with it 12
of the 20 fastest growing economies on
the planet are in Africa it has been
described as the young land in an aging
world and the narrative around the
continent and our relationship must
evolve all of this while the clock of a
climate emergency keeps on ticking
nowhere is this felt more acutely than
Africa and too many places we are seeing
land receding while sea levels
rise the challenge of Our Generation
requires joint effort real partnership
we can ensure a path to real prosperity
economic growth while saving our planet
and safeguarding
rights we've shown that we can be on the
same page time and again as we step up
the energy transition Africa will lead
the way for the global
push we are entering a new era of
international
interdependency where
cooperation has never been more
important and this has made this event
all the more
urgent Europe and Africa have been
friends and allies for many years and
our cooperation has already yielded
tangible results considerable investment
and
sharing yet we need to have the courage
to be honest with ourselves honest about
where we have succeeded honest also
about where we can do better and Europe
understands the responsibility that it
Bears here we need to deliver on our
promises fill the funding gaps that
remain and move on
infrastructural education agricultural
food security
Investments and there are challenges
that go beyond the
immediate I grew up on Malta an island
further to the South than Tunis my
generation is the first not to have
experienced
colonialism we know how difficult it is
to break with the past and Forge New
relationships as partners around the
same table but a new way is possible it
is
desirable and it is
achievable Africa has all that it takes
to be the next global economic
Powerhouse a Pioneer in Green Tech
emerging tourism destinations and a
leader in in the digital transition
nearly half a billion consumers in
Africa already pay on mobile pH phone
platforms launched by local talent in
the energy sector it is a continent
unrivaled Europe has an energy Supply
Challenge and Africa has the potential
to be a massive supplier of any
renewable and green energy this also
applies for raw materials and rare
Earths we can can grow together
sustainably not at the expense of each
other the European and African
continents also have a joint interest
when it comes to security concerns
recent developments underscored those
related to our trade
networks so when we say that Africa must
take its rightful seat at the table as
partners as equals it is an
understanding that our continents our
countes Reas and our people need each
other to emerge stronger from Global
challenges and to Foster economic growth
in a win-win for all Africa has
everything it needs to fulfill its vast
potential and Europe can be a partner
than for instance the Mediterranean
region the potential that it has to
return to its former glory as a hub for
business exchange of goods Services
tourism and ideas are
Limitless too often our discussions are
only dominated by short-term
considerations and this has been
particularly true when we speak about
migration now of course this is a
pressing issue it needs partnership to
address holistically but it is certainly
not the only one our discussions need to
move beyond the immediate and this needs
to start with us on behalf of the
European Parliament I am here today to
show our commitment to making our shared
future safer more prosperous more secure
Europe has a role to play without
imposition with reciprocal trust over
the years of European Parliament has had
the honor of welcoming you many of you
to our house our regular interactions
with parliaments from African countries
and Joint parliamentary assemblies are
an excellent basis and a proof of our
commitment to strengthen
ties

Mone excellencies dear colleagues ladies
and
gentlemen I think it is very
encouraging to listen to the
distinguished different speakers
today because we all feel that this is a
moment of intense and renewed
cooperation between Africa and
Europe because not only our Destinies
are aligned but also our interests are
aligned more than ever before and we've
heard it we all need to switch to clean
energy and to adapt to the climate
change we all need to train now
Workforce for the jobs of
Tomorrow we all want to stop the tragic
loss of life along the migratory
routes and we all want to give
opportunities to our young
people so it's not only geography that
brings us together but also the
commitment to bring mutual benefits to
all our
people so we have to get concrete
read and I'm very grateful to Italy for
putting cooperation with Africa at the
heart of the foreign
policy and of its G7
presidency the new mate plan comes and
as an important contribution to this new
phase of our
collaboration and it comes
complimentary to our European global
gateway global gateway as you know is
the 150 billion Euro investment plan for
Africa and this is plain and simply team
Europe at
work today I would like to focus on
three
issues where Europe and Africa have
agreed to work together and where
Italy's engagement can really make a
difference First Energy and
climate second education and skills and
third
migration on my first point energy and
climate today only 2% of global
investments in clean energy go to
Africa this is
sobering this is very sobering giving
Africa's immense potential as a clean
energy
Powerhouse Africa has the space the wind
the Sun Sun just to name a few what it
lacks is
infrastructure but together we can
change
this with global gateway we aim to bring
clean energy to 100 million people who
currently don't have access to
energy this can turn out as a double
win Africa cannot only produce enough
clean energy to power up the African
continent but also to create revenues by
exporting preparations have begun for
example to build the First underwater
electricity cable linking North Africa
to Italy and the rest of
Europe and for example our new hydrogen
bank is now open to African producers
this means good jobs energy energy
security for both Africa and Europe
my second Point global gateway has a
strong focus on building the local
skills that Africa
needs we are already at work to train
skills for manufacturing vaccines it has
been said in Randa Ghana
senagal we are training the workforce in
Kenya and Namibia to produce clean
hydrogen and here is the first example
for the complimentarity with the mate
plan
Italy plays an active role over 50
Italian
universities have exchange programs now
with their African
counterparts the University of Parma for
example coordinates the arasmus project
to develop clean energy skills in Africa
and we want to invest in this kind of
cooperation for instance we are now
financing a high-speed data connection
between southern Europe and all Northern
African countries from Morocco and
Algeria to Egypt it will link
universities and data centers and this
allows joint research and Joint
businesses on the two sh shores of the
Mediterranean and what I really like
about this project is it is not only an
investment in Africa's Talent but also
in the people in friendship and in the
next generation of our two
continents and this leads me to my third
point on migration we must crack down on
Smugglers who trade on human life
Smugglers put hundreds of thousands of
lives at Peril they amass young men in
the back of trucks across the desert
they abuse young women along the Route
and they put all of them on rickety
boats that are simply not made for the
high
seas we have to stop that callous
business and the best way to do this is
to join forces and crack down on the
criminals and in parallel to build legal
alternatives to the deadly smuggling
routs We Must Destroy The Smuggler Web
of Lies in recent months we have been
working closely with for example Ivory
Coast Gambia ginaa marania and S Sagal
on our common approach that is clear to
save lives and to create
opportunities we offer more
opportunities to come to Europe legally
so that people can move learn and bring
their new expertise back home and we
cooperate on the return of irregular
migrants because Mobility
must be managed by law and not by the
Smugglers and the better we are on legal
migration the more convincing we are on
preventing irregular
migration ladies and
gentlemen enrio mate was a great Italian
and a great European and a true friend
of
Africa he understood before others that
your strength is our strength and vice
versa and his legacy lives on today our
continents are building a true win-win
partnership with benefits for Africa for
Europe and the world so let's keep up
the good work there's a lot to do thank
you very much for your
attention thank you very much
mamed thank you prime minister Malone
excellencies ladies and gentlemen it is
indeed a pleasure to be here with you
today and I thank the leadership of
prime minister Malone and the government
of Italy for hosting this Summit in this
AUST House of the people I believe that
two things unite each of us here today A
conviction that my continent Africa
holds near boundless potential and we've
heard that from all speakers
today but we also see today that the
geopolitical landscape is fast
changing and that will require a
different way of working towards the
commitment to seeing that the potential
of Africa is realized and some of this
we have seen as demonstrated in the
proposed m
plan yet the global reality is that we
are falling behind the commitments that
we have made over the last decades have
been exacerbated by the lack of ability
to come back from different crisis
climate covid Ukraine and more recently
our moral crisis in Israel and
Gaza at the halfway point of the 2030
agenda progress is on the sustainable
development goals is falling woefully
short
only 15% of the targets are on track to
be met by 2030 and by any standard that
is a fail with our Dynamic and booming
youth population our wealth of critical
minerals and the vast renewable energy
prospects in Africa Africa could become
a clean energy Powerhouse and a digital
service center and the next great
manufacturing Hub of the
world but realizing this immense
potential relies on sustainable
development from building resilient
modern infrastructure including energy
the Food Systems Health Systems and
investing in education and skills for
young people and here we welcome the
African Union making the 2024 its year
of
education but the lack of finance and
long-term Investments is the critical
constraint to current progress as we
deal equally with trying to recover and
invest in peace the SG Finance Gap is
immense and it is growing and sadly many
of our wealthy countries Promises of
Finance for development and climate
action remain unfulfilled eroding a
trust and exacerbating the root causes
of the continent such that we cannot get
ahead of the challenges that face us
excellencies the for the forward way is
of course and always has been clear and
at last year's SG Summit we were pleased
to see global leaders agreed to get the
goals back on on
track that includes endorsing the sg's
proposal for an SG stimulus of 500
billion a year which all of us must try
to get behind but it also includes a
commitment to focus Global efforts on
driving progress in critical areas Each
of which can spur broader development
gains and drive progress across all
goals this approach mirrors the African
Union's new 10-year plan for agenda
2063 as well as the efforts to create an
African Continental free trade area the
Italian government's focus at this
Summit on supporting key pillars from
digitalization to energy and Food
Systems complements this approach it
stands to benefit Italy as well as
African countries and their people and
we welcome the focus on genuine equal
Partnerships which should be at the core
of all development cooperation as
articulated by my brother chairperson of
the African Union commission Mustafa
what does this mean in practice it means
working with Africa's leading financial
institutions such as the African
Development
Bank and the and axm bank to build on
and scale up the strong pipeline of
projects that they have begun and to
deliver them urgently to the
people it also means working
constructively with the African Union
commission and agenda 6 60
2063 it means committing to long-term
engagement rejecting our short-term
approaches and building solid
foundations for long-term development
and
sustainability the model that African
countries have advocated for at least
the past decade since the adoption of
the 2063 agenda but crucially it also
means bold substantial and long-term
Investments as required to accelerate
progress in critical areas such as have
been reflected in the European Union's
global
gateway I urge the government of Italy
to make such
transformative and effective and equal
Partnerships a reality and to use its
presidency of the G7 to work with other
countries to do
likewise the UN family will Avail its
expertise in countries across Africa and
at the global level as with the Rome
based agencies that you so kindly host
here in Rome excellencies accelerating
sustainable development across Africa
relies on a surge in private investment
the international financial institutions
play a critical role in making that a
reality as does the private sector here
the international financial institutions
can hope to leverage and to help us D
risk for African countries and here
African countries play a strong role in
working with the World Bank and its new
vision for people prosperity and a
livable plan Planet but also with the
IMF to further the opportunity of the
resilience of sustainable ability trust
and the poverty reduction and growth
trust it also means pursuing peace and
stability and we welcome the African
Union's ambition to silence the guns as
part of the 2063 agenda it does also
mean creating policies and regulations
needed to attract companies underpinned
by strong well-run public institutions
and it means increasing domestic
resources through effective and
transparent means in both Partnerships
